"We're not in a clean energy revolution; we're in a clean energy crisis," says climate policy expert Michael Shellenberger. His surprising solution: nuclear. In this passionate talk, he explains why it's time to overcome longstanding fears of the technology, and why he and other environmentalists believe it's past time to embrace nuclear as a viable and desirable source of clean power.

PleaseReadBelow For More InformationAnything with the word nuclear next to it usually comes with a fair bit of misunderstanding. Hopefully this video demystifies the process of how nuclear fuels are turned into electricity and how we can use them in combination with renewables in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the effects on the climate that come with high levels of them.
Of course, there are many things that have been left out this video as nuclear energy, just as with any other source, has many different factors that need to be taken into account when making decisions. In order to fully understand the situation and make decisions, I highly recommend that you do some research of your own on the topic, rather than simply base your opinion on a four-minute YouTube video.
It should also be noted that this video has been made from the perspective of the United States in general. Every area on Earth has different natural resources and environments that determine what works best there.

In Thailand,the energy used to over 300 million KV/hr and people have demand electirc power for 22,000 MW every day. So,the power is low. the nuclear energy is choice and one of development plan for power in Thailand.
In 2007 - 2021,They have been created 5 works in 5 provinces, Ubon Ratchatani,Nakhon Sawan,Trad,Surat Thani and Chumphon.In 2010,the goverment have resolution in the meeting about building the nuclear power add 5,000 MW. The system is BWR. Scale is 1000, Mwe. Their imagine, the first project will happen in 2035 and then the second will fare in 2036.
In the world apply to energy,It's very add up 4 times. In 1982-1990, The people used to energy increase 24% AND WILL UP 50-70%.Although energy efficient and socially efficient.Thailand is necessary to develop industry and economy. The energy is cheap,enough,increase stability and reduce the use of natural gas. so , the nuclear power plants are good choice.
Policy of nuclear power plant, the review " How the radius have an affect on yourlife? this answer,They have measure of system.They don't pass the excessive radiation to outward by IAEA is control. So , no problems and no danger to animals , nature and agricultural products around them. Many other countries can do fishing as usual. The advantages and disadvantages of renewable energy plants.
The advantages are the energy doesn't have to borrow from neighboring countries, have the origin energy in long-term, clean power andCabon dioxide is decrease on atmosphere. The disadvantages are high budget, must have staff training long time and lose some forest for building. The advantages and disadvantages of nuclear power plants. The advantages are increase energy security, reduce the pressure of global warming, reduce climate change, save energy to be stable for long-term and keep natural gas for other uses. The disadvantages are high budget, hard control, people don't acceptable and creat long time.
Now, The world resources are decreasing and meeting requirement for people every day. It's time you must begin help and save the world for you . thank you

For the first time in decades, it's hard to ignore the threat of nuclear war. But as long as you're far from the blast, you're safe, right? Wrong. In this sobering talk, atmospheric scientist Brian Toon explains how even a small nuclear war could destroy all life on earth -- and what we can do to prevent it. A professor in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of Colorado-Boulder, Brian Toon investigates the causes of the ozone hole, how volcanic eruptions alter the climate, how ancient Mars had flowing rivers, and the environmental impacts of nuclear war. He contributed to the U.N.’s Nobel Peace Prize for climate change and holds numerous scientific awards, including two NASA medals for Exceptional Scientific Achievement. He is an avid woodworker.

Nuclear (Ryan Adams song)

"Nuclear" is a song by singer-songwriter Ryan Adams from his 2002 album Demolition, the only single from the album.

The song was recorded during Adams' July 2001 sessions with the Pinkhearts in Nashville.

In 2002, Adams spoke with CNN about the song: "I guess it's Britpop for Americans. I don't know what it is, really, but the lyrics are funny. There's actually a really funny line in it that says, 'I saw her and the Yankees lost to the Braves.' If you're from Atlanta, that's not a very nice thing to say. It's sort of referring to the fact that the Braves never win." (The Atlanta Braves lost both the 1996 and 1999 World Series to the New York Yankees.)

Among the b-sides included on the various "Nuclear" singles are the non-album tracks "Blue" and "Song For Keith". Adams co-wrote "Blue" with Julianna Raye, and the song comes from the 48 Hours sessions. "Song For Keith" is a tribute to Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards and was recorded during The Pinkhearts Sessions.

What Happened to the Nuclear Test Sites?

What Happened to the Nuclear Test Sites?

https://brilliant.org/curiousdroid
Nuclear testing ended over 20 years ago but the legacy of the test areas still remains and will do for hundreds or thousands of years. 8 countries have actively tested nuclear weapons, some in their own backyard if it was big enough like the Soviet Union and the US but they also used others peoples backyards in the Pacific, the British and French did this.
But what happened to the test sites, in this video we look at the US and Soviet test programs and what became of them and the people nearby.

How fear of nuclear power is hurting the environment | Michael Shellenberger

"We're not in a clean energy revolution; we're in a clean energy crisis," says climate policy expert Michael Shellenberger. His surprising solution: nuclear. In this passionate talk, he explains why it's time to overcome longstanding fears of the technology, and why he and other environmentalists believe it's past time to embrace nuclear as a viable and desirable source of clean power.

Hopefully this video demystifies the process of how nuclear fuels are turned into electricity and how we can use them in combination with renewables in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the effects on the climate that come with high levels of them.
Of course, there are many things that have been left out this video as nuclear energy, just as with any other source, has many different factors that need to be taken into account when making decisions.

The affect nuclear power plant to Thailand Environment

In Thailand,the energy used to over 300 million KV/hr and people have demand electirc power for 22,000 MW every day. So,the power is low. the nuclear energy is choice and one of development plan for power in Thailand.
In 2007 - 2021,They have been created 5 works in 5 provinces, Ubon Ratchatani,Nakhon Sawan,Trad,Surat Thani and Chumphon.In 2010,the goverment have resolution in the meeting about building the nuclear power add 5,000 MW. The system is BWR. Scale is 1000, Mwe. Their imagine, the first project will happen in 2035 and then the second will fare in 2036.
In the world apply to energy,It's very add up 4 times. In 1982-1990, The people used to energy increase 24% AND WILL UP 50-70%.Although energy efficient and socially efficient.Thailand is necessary to develop industry and econom...

Nuclear Energy Environmental Impact

3 Reasons Why Nuclear Energy Is Terrible! 2/3

Nuclear energy might be a failed experiment. In over sixty years the technology has not only failed to keep its promise of cheap, clean and safe energy, it also caused major catastrophes and enabled more nuclear weapons while the nuclear waste problem is still not solved.

I've studied nuclear war for 35 years -- you should be worried. | Brian Toon | TEDxMileHigh

For the first time in decades, it's hard to ignore the threat of nuclear war. But as long as you're far from the blast, you're safe, right? Wrong. In this sobering talk, atmospheric scientist Brian Toon explains how even a small nuclear war could destroy all life on earth -- and what we can do to prevent it. A professor in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of Colorado-Boulder, Brian Toon investigates the causes of the ozone hole, how volcanic eruptions alter the climate, how ancient Mars had flowing rivers, and the environmental impacts of nuclear war. He contributed to the U.N.’s Nobel Peace Prize for climate change and holds numerous scientific awards, including two NASA medals for Exceptional Scientific Achievement. He is an avid woodworker. This talk ...

What Happened to the Nuclear Test Sites?

https://brilliant.org/curiousdroid
Nuclear testing ended over 20 years ago but the legacy of the test areas still remains and will do for hundreds or thousands of years. 8 countries have actively tested nuclear weapons, some in their own backyard if it was big enough like the Soviet Union and the US but they also used others peoples backyards in the Pacific, the British and French did this.
But what happened to the test sites, in this video we look at the US and Soviet test programs and what became of them and the people nearby.

"We're not in a clean energy revolution; we're in a clean energy crisis," says climate policy expert Michael Shellenberger. His surprising solution: nuclear. In this passionate talk, he explains why it's time to overcome longstanding fears of the technology, and why he and other environmentalists believe it's past time to embrace nuclear as a viable and desirable source of clean power.

PleaseReadBelow For More InformationAnything with the word nuclear next to it usually comes with a fair bit of misunderstanding. Hopefully this video demystifies the process of how nuclear fuels are turned into electricity and how we can use them in combination with renewables in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the effects on the climate that come with high levels of them.
Of course, there are many things that have been left out this video as nuclear energy, just as with any other source, has many different factors that need to be taken into account when making decisions. In order to fully understand the situation and make decisions, I highly recommend that you do some research of your own on the topic, rather than simply base your opinion on a four-minute YouTube video.
It should also be noted that this video has been made from the perspective of the United States in general. Every area on Earth has different natural resources and environments that determine what works best there.

In Thailand,the energy used to over 300 million KV/hr and people have demand electirc power for 22,000 MW every day. So,the power is low. the nuclear energy is choice and one of development plan for power in Thailand.
In 2007 - 2021,They have been created 5 works in 5 provinces, Ubon Ratchatani,Nakhon Sawan,Trad,Surat Thani and Chumphon.In 2010,the goverment have resolution in the meeting about building the nuclear power add 5,000 MW. The system is BWR. Scale is 1000, Mwe. Their imagine, the first project will happen in 2035 and then the second will fare in 2036.
In the world apply to energy,It's very add up 4 times. In 1982-1990, The people used to energy increase 24% AND WILL UP 50-70%.Although energy efficient and socially efficient.Thailand is necessary to develop industry and economy. The energy is cheap,enough,increase stability and reduce the use of natural gas. so , the nuclear power plants are good choice.
Policy of nuclear power plant, the review " How the radius have an affect on yourlife? this answer,They have measure of system.They don't pass the excessive radiation to outward by IAEA is control. So , no problems and no danger to animals , nature and agricultural products around them. Many other countries can do fishing as usual. The advantages and disadvantages of renewable energy plants.
The advantages are the energy doesn't have to borrow from neighboring countries, have the origin energy in long-term, clean power andCabon dioxide is decrease on atmosphere. The disadvantages are high budget, must have staff training long time and lose some forest for building. The advantages and disadvantages of nuclear power plants. The advantages are increase energy security, reduce the pressure of global warming, reduce climate change, save energy to be stable for long-term and keep natural gas for other uses. The disadvantages are high budget, hard control, people don't acceptable and creat long time.
Now, The world resources are decreasing and meeting requirement for people every day. It's time you must begin help and save the world for you . thank you

For the first time in decades, it's hard to ignore the threat of nuclear war. But as long as you're far from the blast, you're safe, right? Wrong. In this sobering talk, atmospheric scientist Brian Toon explains how even a small nuclear war could destroy all life on earth -- and what we can do to prevent it. A professor in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of Colorado-Boulder, Brian Toon investigates the causes of the ozone hole, how volcanic eruptions alter the climate, how ancient Mars had flowing rivers, and the environmental impacts of nuclear war. He contributed to the U.N.’s Nobel Peace Prize for climate change and holds numerous scientific awards, including two NASA medals for Exceptional Scientific Achievement. He is an avid woodworker.

Nuclear testing ended over 20 years ago but the legacy of the test areas still remains and will do for hundreds or thousands of years. 8 countries have actively tested nuclear weapons, some in their own backyard if it was big enough like the Soviet Union and the US but they also used others peoples backyards in the Pacific, the British and French did this.
But what happened to the test sites, in this video we look at the US and Soviet test programs and what became of them and the people nearby.

How fear of nuclear power is hurting the environment | Michael Shellenberger

"We're not in a clean energy revolution; we're in a clean energy crisis," says climate policy expert Michael Shellenberger. His surprising solution: nuclear. In this passionate talk, he explains why it's time to overcome longstanding fears of the technology, and why he and other environmentalists believe it's past time to embrace nuclear as a viable and desirable source of clean power.

Nuclear Energy Explained: Risk or Opportunity

PleaseReadBelow For More InformationAnything with the word nuclear next to it usually comes with a fair bit of misunderstanding. Hopefully this video demystifies the process of how nuclear fuels are turned into electricity and how we can use them in combination with renewables in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the effects on the climate that come with high levels of them.
Of course, there are many things that have been left out this video as nuclear energy, just as with any other source, has many different factors that need to be taken into account when making decisions. In order to fully understand the situation and make decisions, I highly recommend that you do some research of your own on the topic, rather than simply base your opinion on a four-minute YouTube video.
It should also be noted that this video has been made from the perspective of the United States in general. Every area on Earth has different natural resources and environments that determine what works best there.
On a lighter note, feel free to keep up with WhatTheWhy on Twitter at https://twitter.com/WhatTheWhy1 . Thanks for watching!

The fight to rethink (and reinvent) nuclear power

New nuclear energy technology has come a long way - but can we get over our fears?
This is the fifth episode of Climate Lab, a six-part series produced by the University of California in partnership with Vox. Hosted by Emmy-nominated conservation scientist Dr. M. Sanjayan, the videos explore the surprising elements of our lives that contribute to climate change and the groundbreaking work being done to fight back. Featuring conversations with experts, scientists, thought leaders and activists, the series takes what can seem like an overwhelming problem and breaks it down into manageable parts: from clean energy to food waste, religion to smartphones. Sanjayan is an alum of UC Santa Cruz and a Visiting Researcher at UCLA. Prior episodes at https://goo.gl/Htdlkb/ Check back next Wednesday for the final episode.

The affect nuclear power plant to Thailand Environment

In Thailand,the energy used to over 300 million KV/hr and people have demand electirc power for 22,000 MW every day. So,the power is low. the nuclear energy is choice and one of development plan for power in Thailand.
In 2007 - 2021,They have been created 5 works in 5 provinces, Ubon Ratchatani,Nakhon Sawan,Trad,Surat Thani and Chumphon.In 2010,the goverment have resolution in the meeting about building the nuclear power add 5,000 MW. The system is BWR. Scale is 1000, Mwe. Their imagine, the first project will happen in 2035 and then the second will fare in 2036.
In the world apply to energy,It's very add up 4 times. In 1982-1990, The people used to energy increase 24% AND WILL UP 50-70%.Although energy efficient and socially efficient.Thailand is necessary to develop industry and economy. The energy is cheap,enough,increase stability and reduce the use of natural gas. so , the nuclear power plants are good choice.
Policy of nuclear power plant, the review " How the radius have an affect on yourlife? this answer,They have measure of system.They don't pass the excessive radiation to outward by IAEA is control. So , no problems and no danger to animals , nature and agricultural products around them. Many other countries can do fishing as usual. The advantages and disadvantages of renewable energy plants.
The advantages are the energy doesn't have to borrow from neighboring countries, have the origin energy in long-term, clean power andCabon dioxide is decrease on atmosphere. The disadvantages are high budget, must have staff training long time and lose some forest for building. The advantages and disadvantages of nuclear power plants. The advantages are increase energy security, reduce the pressure of global warming, reduce climate change, save energy to be stable for long-term and keep natural gas for other uses. The disadvantages are high budget, hard control, people don't acceptable and creat long time.
Now, The world resources are decreasing and meeting requirement for people every day. It's time you must begin help and save the world for you . thank you

I've studied nuclear war for 35 years -- you should be worried. | Brian Toon | TEDxMileHigh

For the first time in decades, it's hard to ignore the threat of nuclear war. But as long as you're far from the blast, you're safe, right? Wrong. In this sobering talk, atmospheric scientist Brian Toon explains how even a small nuclear war could destroy all life on earth -- and what we can do to prevent it. A professor in the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of Colorado-Boulder, Brian Toon investigates the causes of the ozone hole, how volcanic eruptions alter the climate, how ancient Mars had flowing rivers, and the environmental impacts of nuclear war. He contributed to the U.N.’s Nobel Peace Prize for climate change and holds numerous scientific awards, including two NASA medals for Exceptional Scientific Achievement. He is an avid woodworker. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
